1. About this report

Prepared by The COVID Project, Sept. 30, 2026. Selection: industry Logistics, Warehousing and Wholesale. Quarters: second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020), third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020), fourth quarter of 2020 (Oct. 1, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020), first quarter of 2021 (Jan. 1, 2021 to Mar. 31, 2021), second quarter of 2021 (Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021) and third quarter of 2021 (July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021). Options: the federal layer, agencies and boards, standing duties, group meetings and trade shows and the Service's fourteen sentences answered.

This report is a record of the governmental orders and related instruments that The COVID Project has retrieved, verified and indexed for the State, metropolitan area, industry and calendar quarters selected. Each instrument appears with its issuer, its number and title, its dates, the quarters in which it was in force, the functions of a business it reached, its operative words, its enforcement provision, a citation and an exhibit identifier. Every exhibit identifier resolves to the instrument's record at covidproject.com/library, and to the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit.

The report is assembled from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings, and it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It lists the instruments The COVID Project has verified and no others, so every count in it is a floor. It is not a filing, and it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit.

The report reproduces at covidproject.com/report?industry=11&quarters=2020Q2,2020Q3,2020Q4,2021Q1,2021Q2,2021Q3&federal=1&agencies=1&duties=1&meetings=1&answers=1. Every exhibit identifier in it resolves at covidproject.com/library/ followed by the identifier, and the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit/ followed by the identifier.

Disclaimer

The COVID Project is a free public reference. This report is generated from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings that The COVID Project has retrieved and indexed; it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it does not create any professional relationship, it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit or the amount of any credit, and it is not a count of every order that existed. The COVID Project sells nothing and represents no one. Errors in any record can be reported through covidproject.com/contact with the exhibit identifier, and corrections are recorded with their dates.

2. Summary of findings

For each quarter selected, this section states what was in force for this selection on the quarter's first and last days, in the words of the Library's own quarter-by-quarter record for the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators and the federal layer. Exhibit identifiers in parentheses name the instruments. The table that follows counts the instruments listed in section 5 by layer and quarter.

The federal layer of this report is the Library's two federal files: FED-A, the health, safety and transport layer, and FED-B, the commerce, travel, workplace and finance layer, including the orders of the federal courts those files hold. The ecosystem clusters and the federal agency clusters are listed in the Library's federal layer at covidproject.com/federal and are not part of this report's federal layer; a quarter page counts every federal-level instrument of the quarter across those clusters as well, so its figure is the larger of the two.

3. The statute and the test

An employer is an eligible employer for a calendar quarter under the governmental-orders test if

the operation of the trade or business described in clause (i) is fully or partially suspended during the calendar quarter due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes) due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)

CARES Act § 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 348; I.R.C. § 3134(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), 135 Stat. 4, 177

Congress enacted those words four times and never changed them. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of March 27, 2020 enacted the Suspension Clause at section 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 347-48, for wages paid after March 12, 2020 and before January 1, 2021 (§ 2301(m), 134 Stat. 351) (Ex. LAW-001). The Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020, Pub. L. 116-260, div. EE, §§ 206-207, 134 Stat. 1182, 3059-65 (Dec. 27, 2020), extended the credit to wages paid before July 1, 2021 and raised its rate to 70 percent; neither section touched the clause (Ex. LAW-002).

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Pub. L. 117-2, § 9651, 135 Stat. 4, 176 (Mar. 11, 2021), added section 3134 to the Internal Revenue Code, whose heading repeats the CARES Act title and whose Suspension Clause reappears word for word at 135 Stat. 177, for wages paid after June 30, 2021 (§ 3134(n), 135 Stat. 182) (Ex. LAW-003). The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58, § 80604, 135 Stat. 429, 1341 (Nov. 15, 2021), ended the credit for calendar quarters beginning after September 30, 2021, and left the third quarter of 2021 in place (Ex. LAW-004).

The clause has seven elements, taken in the statute's order: orders; from an appropriate governmental authority; limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes); due to COVID-19; the operation of the trade or business fully or partially suspended; during the calendar quarter; and due to those orders. The words "essential," "comparable operations," "telework," "customers," "voluntary," "more than nominal," "10 percent," "directed at," "jurisdiction over the employer," "proximate," "independent" and "sufficient" appear in none of the four enactments. The credit runs by calendar quarter; the six quarters the clause governs are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021.

The partial-suspension test and how this report applies it

In this report the Internal Revenue Service is the "Service," the Government as a litigant is the "United States," Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, is the "Notice," and the statutory text above is the "Suspension Clause." Tri-State is Tri-State Memorial Hospital v. United States, No. 2:25-cv-0181-TOR, ECF No. 38 (E.D. Wash. May 28, 2026), the one federal decision construing the clause's words. Doc. 44 is the United States' opposition and cross-motion for summary judgment in Stenson Tamaddon, LLC v. IRS, No. 2:24-cv-01123-SPL (D. Ariz. Jan. 6, 2025), ECF No. 44; Doc. 49 is the summary-judgment order in that case of June 20, 2025; and the Br. for Appellees is the United States' brief in the appeal, No. 25-4217 (9th Cir. Jan. 30, 2026).

The statute controls, and the Notice does not. The United States has told two federal courts so: the Notice "is merely guidance" and "lacks the force of law" (Doc. 44 at 19); "the United States is not arguing that the IRS interpretation has the force of law or is entitled to deference" (Doc. 44 at 31 & n.8); "[w]hether Notice 2021-20 exists or not, the statute will control whether a refund is warranted" (Doc. 44 at 24). The court held that "the Notice carries no force of law and is entitled to no deference" (Doc. 49 at 27) and that the ten percent figure "is not an exclusionary cut-off point, but rather a safe harbor" (Doc. 49 at 26). In the Ninth Circuit the United States called the Notice "nonbinding guidance," its ten percent provision "a quintessential safe harbor," and wrote that "[t]here is no question of deference here" (Br. for Appellees at 26, 37-38, 58).

"Fully or partially suspended" means what the words say. On definitions both parties agreed, Tri-State held: "a 'partial suspension' is a temporary delay, interruption, or termination of a portion an employer's business. The language is plain" (Tri-State at 8-9). The court refused to read "more than nominal" as "significant": "the plain language and ordinary meaning of partial and nominal do not suggest either of those interpretations" (Tri-State at 10-11). The Notice's ten percent rules are "only administrative guidance"; "the IRS Notice provides a method for the test to be met not as a requirement to meet the test" (Tri-State at 15-16). "Due to" means "because of," which "[b]oth Plaintiff and Defendant agree" (Tri-State at 17), and "the Court recognizes that 'due to' requires 'but-for' causation" (Tri-State at 19). The argument that the virus rather than the order caused the changes fails: "[s]ick patients and employees alone did not require additional protocols" (Tri-State at 20-21).

This report applies the test in five steps, with the instruments the Library holds for your selection and no others. Step one, the order: the issuer, the instrument by number and title, its dates and its exhibit; the Service's own Q&A-10 treats "orders, proclamations, or decrees" as orders "without regard to the level of enforcement" (Notice 2021-20, Q&A-10, at 927-28). Step two, the function it reached: the part of the business the order governed, whether the customer-facing floor, the back of house, the office, the workforce, the supply chain or the customer base. Step three, the change it compelled: the operative words, quoted from the instrument, and the sanction behind them. Step four, the quarter: the days on which the instrument was in force, tested against its dates. Step five, the statute's answer: a function is a portion of the operation; a compelled change is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; but for the order no law required it; and on the definitions the United States agreed to, the operation was partially suspended during the quarter due to the order.

The statute does not ask whether the business was "essential" or stayed open: the Notice's own Q&A-17, Example 4, calls an open hospital under an elective-procedure order partially suspended (Q&A-17, at 930). It does not ask whether the business could telework: Q&A-15 finds a partial suspension wherever a workplace closure "causes the employer to suspend business operations for certain purposes, but not others" (Q&A-15, at 929). It does not ask whose customers were under orders: "a business may be suspended 'due to' a government order addressing a third party" (Br. for Appellees at 41). It does not ask whether a compelled measure was "voluntary": Q&A-14 reaches only a suspension "not due to a governmental order" (Q&A-14, at 929). And it does not ask for a percentage: "The 10 percent is not determinative ... Properly understood, it isn't an eligibility requirement" (Doc. 44 at 14). The Service's letters ask each of those questions. The statute asks one, and this report answers it, instrument by instrument.

How this report was assembled

The report is drawn from The COVID Project's Orders Library, which indexes the governmental orders that limited commerce, travel and group meetings in the United States from March 2020 through September 30, 2021. The Library is organized in layers, and the report walks them in order for your selection: the federal layer (proclamations, executive orders, agency orders and rules, and the federal courts' general orders); your State, from its first declaration to the instrument that ended its general restrictions; your metropolitan area's health officers, mayors and courts; the sector regulators of your industry (licensing boards, health departments, alcohol and gaming regulators, labor agencies and federal program rules); the clusters of authorities that are easy to overlook (ports, aviation, courts, motor-vehicle offices, tribal and territorial governments); the standing duties of your State and of the United States (communicable-disease, workplace-safety and liability-shield statutes); and the organizers' notices of the trade shows, conventions, seasons and tournaments your industry lost.

Every record carries one of two grades, and the report shows only these two. Primary source read means the compiler read the issuing authority's own text: the order as published, the register page, the codified rule, the court's docket entry. Confirmed from a secondary source means the instrument's existence, number, date and substance were established from an identifiable secondary source and the primary text was not read. Records graded unverified or not retrieved never appear. Every exhibit was retrieved from the issuing authority's site or from the Internet Archive's capture of it, kept only if its text contained a distinctive phrase of the instrument, hashed at retrieval and re-checked by a second reviewer.

Every instrument has one exhibit identifier, used everywhere on the site and in this report. A State instrument carries its two-letter State code and a serial number (Ex. TX-004 is Texas Executive Order GA-09 of March 22, 2020); a metropolitan instrument carries MET and the metro code; a federal instrument carries FED; a sector regulator's instrument carries SEC and the industry number, and an organizer's notice adds GM; an overlooked authority carries AGY and its cluster; a standing duty carries DUT and the State code, or DUT-FED (Ex. DUT-FED-001 is the general duty clause of the Occupational Safety and Health Act); a legal authority carries LAW.

The dates decide the quarters. An instrument is in force in a quarter only if its effective date fell on or before the quarter's last day and its end date, if any, fell on or after the quarter's first day. The six quarters are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021. Because the CARES Act applies to wages paid after March 12, 2020, and the Service's Form 941-X instructions place the credit for wages paid March 13 through March 31, 2020 on the second-quarter return, the orders of March 13 through 31, 2020, the first stay-at-home and closure orders in the country, appear in the record of the second quarter of 2020.

4. How this business operates: Logistics, Warehousing and Wholesale

The industry that moved every other industry's goods was never closed as such, and that is the point of its record: every order that closed, capped or reconfigured a shipper, a receiver, a store, a restaurant, a plant, a port, a border crossing, a motor-vehicle office or a driver's route was an order limiting the commerce of the carrier, broker, warehouse and wholesaler that served it, and the industry's own regulators layered conditions on top. 2020 Q2 (with the March 13-31 run-in): the stay-home and closure orders of 42 States and the District named transportation, logistics and warehousing as essential or critical infrastructure (nearly all by incorporating the CISA list, whose 'Transportation and Logistics' heading reads 'truck drivers,... dispatchers, maintenance and repair technicians, warehouse workers, truck stop and rest area workers,... Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) workers'), which meant permitted to operate under conditions, not exempt: New Jersey EO 122 (Apr. 8, eff. Apr. 10, 2020) imposed eleven mandatory workplace rules on 'warehousing businesses' (visitor bans, meetings under ten, six-foot distancing, staggered shifts, face coverings and gloves at the employer's expense, symptomatic-worker exclusion); Pennsylvania's life-sustaining list (Mar. 19, 2020) kept trucking, freight arrangement, couriers and warehousing open while ordering the physical closure of furniture, lumber and construction-materials, apparel, miscellaneous nondurable and electronic-market wholesalers; New York's PAUSE (EO 202.6-202.8) closed non-essential wholesale trade to in-person work until Phase 1 (May 15 upstate; June 8 New York City) and then reopened it only under the mandatory Interim Guidance for Wholesale Trade (50 percent occupancy, six feet, face coverings); Ohio's Stay Safe Ohio Order (Apr. 30, 2020) made the 'Manufacturing, Distribution & Construction' sheet mandatory (six feet or barriers, daily symptom assessment, face coverings 'at all times', maximum capacity); Los Angeles County, Minnesota (EO 20-40 preparedness plans), Illinois (EO 2020-32), Kentucky, Massachusetts, Colorado, Michigan, Washington and Virginia imposed comparable conditions. Drivers ran through a lattice of traveler-quarantine orders (Florida EO 20-82 and the I-10/I-95 checkpoints of EO 20-86; Texas GA-12 with DPS enforcement on the Louisiana border; Rhode Island's stops of New York-plated vehicles; Alaska Health Mandate 010; Hawaii; Vermont; Maine; Delaware; South Carolina; Oklahoma; West Virginia; Kentucky; Montana; Kansas; New Mexico), each of which exempted 'commercial activity' or 'essential' work only on conditions (documentation, plans, no stops, 24-hour limits) and none of which exempted the driver's rest, food, fuel or lodging stops; Pennsylvania closed every Turnpike service plaza on March 17, 2020 and reopened them March 20 with limited food and staffing; DMVs closed in nearly every State between March 16 and 27, 2020 and suspended CDL skills tests, so that hiring stopped at the credential (FMCSA's own December 2020 notice records the 'COVID-19 situation, which has impacted SDLAs and their operating statuses'). At the borders, DHS limited land-port travel with Canada and Mexico to 'essential travel' from March 21, 2020, an exception for 'truck drivers supporting the movement of cargo' that was itself a condition (documentation, Canada's ArriveCAN and testing rules on the return leg), renewed monthly through November 8, 2021. FMCSA's Emergency Declaration 2020-002 (Mar. 13, 2020) suspended hours-of-service limits for relief loads: posture only, pleaded as the regulator's own finding that the national emergency reached every commercial motor vehicle operation, never as a limitation. 2020 Q3-Q4: reopening left the workplace rules (NJ EO 192 from Nov. 5, 2020; Virginia's 16VAC25-220 from July 27, 2020; Michigan's MIOSHA emergency rules from Oct. 14, 2020; Cal/OSHA's 8 CCR 3205 from Nov. 30, 2020; Oregon OSHA from Nov. 16, 2020) and the traveler-quarantine regimes (NY EO 205 from June 25, 2020 with the DOH essential-worker protocols; CT EO 7III from July 21; MA Order 45 from Aug. 1; Chicago's Emergency Travel Order from July 6; PA's test-or-quarantine order from Nov. 20, 2020) in force while the winter re-tightening re-closed customers. 2021 Q1-Q2: the CDC conveyance order (Feb. 1, 2021) made masks federal law at every 'transportation hub', defined to include every 'seaport or other port' and 'U.S. port of entry', and on every commercial motor vehicle except when 'the driver is the sole occupant', so team drivers, terminals and port gates operated under it; the Coast Guard's MSIB 02-21 (Feb. 1, 2021, changes Mar. 22 and June 11) and the FRA's emergency order (Feb. 2021) carried the same requirement onto every commercial vessel, sea port and 'all freight rail operations'; the land-border notices renewed monthly; FMCSA extended the emergency declaration on Feb. 17 and May 26, 2021. 2021 Q3: in force July 1 through September 30, 2021 were the CDC conveyance order and the Coast Guard and FRA implementations (PT, DR for team and hub operations), the DHS land-border notices of June 23, July 22, Aug. 23 and Sept. 22, 2021 (DR, PT, CB), the presidential entry proclamations to Nov. 8, 2021 (SC, MK), FMCSA's declaration extended through Aug. 31 and then Nov. 30, 2021 (posture), OSHA's revised National Emphasis Program of July 7, 2021 naming NAICS 493110 General Warehousing and Storage as a targeted industry (WH), Cal/OSHA's ETS as readopted June 17, 2021 (WH, DR, MT, OP in California), Virginia's permanent 16VAC25-220 (amended Sept. 8, 2021), Washington's L&I rule WAC 296-800-14035 readopted July 6, Aug. 23 and Sept. 20, 2021 and Secretary of Health mask order of Aug. 20, 2021, Oregon's OAR 333-019-1025 (Aug. 13), Nevada's Directive 047 (July 30), Illinois EO 2021-20 (Aug. 30), New Mexico's Aug. 17 order, Louisiana's Aug. 4 proclamation, Hawaii's and the District's orders, New York's HERO Act designation (Sept. 6, 2021, activating every private employer's exposure-prevention plan), the county and city mask orders of Los Angeles (July 17), the Bay Area (Aug. 3), Sacramento, Clark County, St. Louis, Kansas City, New Orleans, Memphis, Atlanta, Philadelphia (Aug. 12), Chicago (Aug. 20), Marion County, Columbus, Boulder County and the contested Texas county orders, the school masking and quarantine orders of the 2021-22 year (WF), the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force attestation rules for contractor personnel entering federal facilities (July 29, 2021) and EO 14042 (Sept. 9, 2021) (DR, CS for federal deliveries), and the continuing State emergencies in California, Washington, Oregon, Illinois, Louisiana, New Mexico, Nevada, Hawaii, Texas, Connecticut, Rhode Island and the District. The suspension the 2020-2021 orders caused continued into the quarter because of them: contracts re-let, lanes re-routed, drivers not hired for want of CDL tests, terminals reconfigured for distancing and masking, cross-border lanes still limited to essential travel.

CMS, in collaboration with medical societies and associations, recently created recommendations to postpone non-essential surgeries and other procedures. This document provides recommendations to limit those medical services that could be deferred, such as non-emergent, elective treatment, and preventive medical services for patients of all ages. A tiered framework is recommended to prioritize services and care to those who require emergent or urgent attention to save a life, manage severe disease, or avoid further harms from an underlying condition.... CMS urges healthcare facilities and clinicians to consider the following tiered approach to curtailing non-emergent, elective medical services and treatment.

Specifically, facilities are required to test residents and staff, including individuals providing services under arrangement and volunteers, for COVID-19 based on parameters set forth by the HHS Secretary. This memorandum provides guidance for facilities to meet the new requirements.... Routine Testing of Staff: Routine testing should be based on the extent of the virus in the community, therefore facilities should use their county positivity rate in the prior week as the trigger for staff testing frequency. [Table: county positivity Low (<5%) - Once a month; Medium (5%-10%) - Once a week; High (>10%) - Twice a week.]...

This Direction describes policies and procedures for implementing a National Emphasis Program (NEP) to ensure that employees in high-hazard industries or work tasks are protected from the hazard of contracting SARS-CoV-2... The NEP augments OSHA's efforts addressing unprogrammed COVID-19-related activities, e.g., complaints, referrals, and severe incident reports, by adding a component to target specific high-hazard industries or activities where this hazard is prevalent. The NEP targets establishments that have workers with increased potential exposure to this hazard, and that puts the largest number of workers at serious risk.

Enforcement: Programmed OSHA inspections; citations under the general duty clause and existing standards; whistleblower referrals

8. Partial suspension, element by element, for this business

This section applies the five-step test of section 3 to a business of the industry Logistics, Warehousing and Wholesale with the instruments this report found for the quarters selected and no others: the order; the function of the business it reached; the change it compelled, in its own words; the days of the quarter on which it was in force; and the statute's answer. Where the Library holds only federal-layer and standing-duty instruments for a quarter, the section says so and applies the test to those instruments.

FED-190); Office of Management and Budget (Acting Director Russell T. Vought), OMB Memorandum M-20-16 (Mar. 17, 2020) (Ex. FED-264); and 176 more). Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions of business of the Logistics and Wholesale industry, as the Library records them: dispatch and brokerage (DS; Ex. SEC-11-040, Ex. SEC-11-044); drivers and routes (DR; Ex. SEC-11-047, Ex. SEC-11-055, Ex. SEC-11-054, Ex. SEC-11-020 and 6 more); warehouse and dock (WH; Ex. SEC-11-020, Ex. SEC-11-021, Ex.

Step three, the change compelled. Governor Mike Dunleavy; Commissioner of Health and Social Services Adam Crum; Chief Medical Officer Anne Zink, COVID-19 Health Mandate 010 - International and Interstate Travel - Order for Self-Quarantine (Mar. 23, 2020) (Ex. SEC-11-047) ordered: "[Scanned image; text not machine-readable in this session. workers in critical infrastructure industries may work only under a community/workforce protective plan submitted to the State (Attachment A) that provides for testing, quarantine and separation from the community.]" Enforcement: AS 12.55.035 and AS 26.23.200: fine up to $25,000 (recited in Alaska health mandates) Governor Phil Scott, Addendum 7 to Executive Order 01-20 (Mar. 30, 2020) (Ex. SEC-11-055) ordered: "[A]ny person, resident or non-resident, travelling into Vermont for anything other than an essential purpose, must immediately self-quarantine for 14 days or the balance of 14 days dating from the day of arrival... 'Essential purpose' for purposes of this quarantine restriction shall mean travel…" Enforcement: 20 V.S.A. § 40 and Addendum penalties (Vermont State file) Governor Janet T. Mills, Executive Order 34 FY 19/20 (Apr. 3, 2020) (Ex. SEC-11-054) ordered: "[A]ny person, resident or non-resident, traveling into Maine must immediately self-quarantine for 14 days or for the balance of 14 days dating from the day of arrival, except when engaging in essential services as defined in Executive Order 19 FY 19/20... effective April 5, 2020 at 12:00 noon, all…" Enforcement: 37-B M.R.S. § 786 (Class E crime for violation of an emergency order) The operative words of every other instrument of the quarter are quoted in section 5.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from Mar. 13, 2020 to June 30, 2020, 110 days. COVID-19 Health Mandate 010 - International and Interstate Travel - Order for… (Ex. SEC-11-047) was in force from Mar. 25, 2020 to June 6, 2020, 74 of the quarter's 110 days; Addendum 7 to Executive Order 01-20 (Ex.

SEC-11-054) was in force from Apr. 3, 2020 to June 30, 2021, 89 of the quarter's 110 days. Of the 12 instruments in the quarter's record, 0 were in force on its first day, 8 on its last day and 0 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of a business of the Logistics and Wholesale industry; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the second quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020, 92 days. Addendum 7 to Executive Order 01-20 (Ex.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of a business of the Logistics and Wholesale industry; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the third quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19.

SEC-11-054) was in force from Apr. 3, 2020 to June 30, 2021, 91 of the quarter's 91 days; Responsible RestartOhio: Manufacturing, Distribution & Construction sector requirements… (Ex. SEC-11-030) was in force from May 4, 2020 to June 2, 2021, 63 of the quarter's 91 days. Of the 8 instruments in the quarter's record, 5 were in force on its first day, 4 on its last day and 2 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of a business of the Logistics and Wholesale industry; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the second quarter of 2021 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

Third quarter of 2021 (July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021)

Step one, the orders. In the third quarter of 2021 the Library holds 171 instruments in force for this selection: 4 instruments from the regulators of Logistics, Warehousing and Wholesale (California Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board (Cal/OSHA), COVID-19 Prevention Emergency Temporary Standards, 8 C.C.R. §§ 3205-3205.4 (approved text) (Nov. 30, 2020) (Ex. SEC-11-027); New York State Legislature (L. 2021, ch. 105, as amended by ch. 146); Commissioner of Health (designation); Department of Labor (standard), N.Y. Labor Law § 218-b: Airborne infectious disease exposure prevention standard (statutory text) (May 5, 2021) (Ex. SEC-11-031); Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, Notice, Agency Information Collection Request Concerning Certain Motor Carrier Activities When Responding to Emergency Declarations, 86 Fed. Reg. 48291 (Aug. 27, 2021) (reciting the May 26, 2021 extension of Emergency Declaration 2020-002 through Aug. 31, 2021) (Ex. SEC-11-062); and 1 more) and 167 federal instruments (President Donald J. Trump, Executive Order 13917, Delegating Authority Under the Defense Production Act With Respect to Food Supply Chain Resources, 85 Fed. Reg. 26313 (Apr. 28, 2020) (Ex. FED-073); Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS, CDC Framework for Conditional Sailing Order (Oct. 30, 2020) (Ex. FED-031); Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS (order signed by the CDC Director Jan. 29, 2021), CDC Order, Requirement for Persons To Wear Masks While on Conveyances and at Transportation Hubs, 86 Fed. Reg. 8025 (Feb. 3, 2021; effective Feb. 1, 2021) (Jan. 29, 2021) (Ex. FED-020); and 164 more). Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions of business of the Logistics and Wholesale industry, as the Library records them: drivers and routes (DR; Ex. SEC-11-027, Ex. SEC-11-031, Ex. SEC-11-062, Ex. SEC-11-063); warehouse and dock (WH; Ex. SEC-11-027, Ex. SEC-11-031); maintenance (MT; Ex. SEC-11-027); office, administration and telework (OP; Ex. SEC-11-027, Ex. SEC-11-031, Ex. SEC-11-062); workforce availability (WF; Ex. SEC-11-027, Ex. SEC-11-031).

Step three, the change compelled. California Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board (Cal/OSHA), COVID-19 Prevention Emergency Temporary Standards, 8 C.C.R. §§ 3205-3205.4 (approved text) (Nov. 30, 2020) (Ex. SEC-11-027) ordered: "§ 3205(a)(1): This section applies to all employees and places of employment, with the following exceptions: (A) Places of employment with one employee who does not have contact with other persons... § 3205(c): Written COVID-19 Prevention Program.

(Cal/OSHA citations and civil penalties) New York State Legislature (L. 2021, ch. 105, as amended by ch. 146); Commissioner of Health (designation); Department of Labor (standard), N.Y. Labor Law § 218-b: Airborne infectious disease exposure prevention standard (statutory text) (May 5, 2021) (Ex. SEC-11-031) ordered: "(e) 'Airborne infectious disease' shall mean any infectious viral, bacterial or fungal disease that is transmissible through the air in the form of aerosol particles or droplets and is designated by the commissioner of health a highly contagious communicable disease that presents a serious risk of…" Enforcement: Labor Law § 218-b(3): civil penalties as stated; Commissioner of Labor enforcement; private right of action for injunctive relief Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, Notice, Agency Information Collection Request Concerning Certain Motor Carrier Activities When Responding to Emergency Declarations, 86 Fed. Reg. 48291 (Aug. 27, 2021) (reciting the May 26, 2021 extension of Emergency Declaration 2020-002 through Aug. 31, 2021) (Ex. SEC-11-062) ordered: "On May 26, 2021, FMCSA extended the modified Emergency Declaration No. 2020-002 and associated regulatory relief through August 31, 2021, in accordance with 49 CFR 390.25.... Under the modified Emergency Declaration No. 2020-002, motor carriers and drivers providing direct assistance in support of…" Enforcement: n/a The operative words of every other instrument of the quarter are quoted in section 5.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021, 92 days. N.Y. Labor Law § 218-b: Airborne infectious disease exposure prevention standard… (Ex. SEC-11-031) was in force from June 4, 2021 to Mar. 17, 2022, 92 of the quarter's 92 days; Notice, Agency Information Collection Request Concerning Certain Motor Carrier Activities… (Ex. SEC-11-062) was in force from May 26, 2021 to Aug. 31, 2021, 62 of the quarter's 92 days. Of the 4 instruments in the quarter's record, 2 were in force on its first day, 1 on its last day and 1 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of a business of the Logistics and Wholesale industry; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the third quarter of 2021 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

9. The Service's sentences, answered for Logistics, Warehousing and Wholesale

The Service's letters and examination reports rest on fourteen grounds. Each is answered here from the statute's text, from Tri-State, from the instruments themselves and from the United States' own representations to two federal courts. None survives.

Each sentence below is stated in the Service's general vocabulary and answered from the industry analysis; the full answer, with its footnotes, is on the ground page linked beneath it.

Sentence 1: 1. No orders in effect

"There were no government orders related to COVID-19 in effect during the quarter which could have fully or partially suspended your trade or business."

For every quarter, the six-quarter section above lists the orders in force on the quarter's first and last day, by issuer, date and terms, with exhibit identifiers, and the State and quarter tables on this page tabulate them. For the third quarter of 2021 alone the list runs to the federal conveyance, port, rail, border, entry, Title 42, testing, inspection, health-care and contractor orders, the occupational standards of five States, New York's activated plans, the indoor face-covering orders (workplace infection-prevention and exposure-control requirements) of seven States, the District and the freight hubs listed in the third-quarter inventory, the vaccination-proof orders of four cities and the emergencies of twenty-five States. A form sentence that no orders were in effect is not the determination the United States described to the District Court:

The sentence describes a quarter that did not occur, and the Service's records, whatever they contain, do not contain the Federal Register.

Sentence 2: 2. The essential designation and remaining open

"The employer operated an essential business and remained open."

The word "essential" is not in the statute. The designations permitted operation; they exempted no dock from New Jersey's eleven rules, no wholesale floor from New York's fifty percent cap, no warehouse from OSHA's inspection list, no cab from the conveyance order, no crossing from the border notices and no driver from a State's quarantine line. The Notice itself provides that an employer so designated "may be considered to have a partial suspension of operations if, under the facts and circumstances, more than a nominal portion of its business operations are suspended by a governmental order," and the United States told the District Court:

The Service's own history confirms the answer. Its FAQ 30 of April 29, 2020 stated the designation categorically; on June 19, 2020 the Service qualified it, adding the partial-suspension pathway for designated employers that the Notice carries as Q&A-11; and on March 1, 2021 it fixed a ten percent figure to that pathway in a document the United States says has no force of law. The customer sentence ran the same course: FAQ 32 of April 29, 2020 confined it to a business designated essential and "not required to close its physical locations or otherwise suspend its operations" claiming a suspension "for the sole reason" of its customers' stay-at-home order, and Q&A-13 of March 1, 2021 widened it to any "reduction in demand." The designation was a permission to operate under the orders, not an exemption from them. An employer that "remained open" under an order that fixed how open it could be was partially suspended by that order; Pennsylvania's five wholesale lines were not open at all.

Sentence 3: 3. Orders directed to the public

"Stay-at-home orders directed to the public are not considered; only orders directed at business operations count."

The statute says nothing of the addressee. The Notice lists "[a] State's emergency proclamation that residents must shelter in place" as a governmental order, and the United States told the District Court that the qualifying instruments are "orders, proclamations, or decrees from the Federal government or any State or local government" that limited "commerce, travel, or group meetings." For this industry the point is doubly foreclosed: the stay-at-home orders confined the public whose purchases moved the freight, and the same orders closed the docks the freight was delivered to; the United States has represented that "a business may be suspended 'due to' a government order addressing a third party." A reading under which an order addressed to the public is not such an order is a reading Congress did not write and the United States has disclaimed.

Sentence 4: 4. Comparable operations through telework

"The employer could have continued comparable operations through telework."

Drivers, dock workers, pickers, mechanics and port labor do not telework, and the Notice's own comparable-operations gloss is confined to an employer whose workplace was closed and that "is able to continue operations comparable to its operations prior to the closure, including by requiring its employees to telework"; it has no application to an operation the orders required to be performed in person under compelled conditions. Where the industry's offices were sent home by New York's, New Jersey's, Pennsylvania's and Michigan's mandates, the dispatch and administrative functions were themselves suspended in part by those mandates, and the Notice's fourth factor treats the transition as part of the suspension. The words "comparable operations" and "telework" are not in the statute, and a gloss that has no force of law cannot exclude an operation the statute's words include.

Sentence 5: 5. The orders affected the customers, not the employer

"The orders affected the employer's customers, not the employer (Q&A-13)."

The commerce the customer orders limited was this industry's commerce: a closed store received no load, a closed restaurant ordered no case, a closed plant tendered no shipment, a hospital under a visitor ban admitted the driver on its own terms. Q&A-13 as posted on April 29, 2020 reached only a business designated essential and "not required to close its physical locations or otherwise suspend its operations" that claimed a suspension "for the sole reason" of a stay-at-home order; the Notice of March 1, 2021 extended it to any "reduction in demand," a change the United States says has no force of law. Q&A-12, which the United States has read to the Ninth Circuit as reaching "a government order addressing a third party," makes the supplier's order the employer's order, and a receiver is a supplier of the dock the carrier needs. Tri-State fixed causation at but-for; but for the closure orders, no law closed the receiving dock. The Service's gloss treats the closed dock as the customer's affair; the load that was not delivered was the carrier's.

Sentence 6: 6. The measures were voluntary

"The employer's measures were voluntary (Q&A-14)."

New Jersey's Executive Order 122 begins "must adopt policies that include, at minimum, the following requirements"; New York's guidance states "These guidelines are minimum requirements only"; Ohio's sheet is headed "Mandatory"; the conveyance order says "must wear"; Washington's rule is enforceable by citation; New York's statute carries penalties to $20,000; Clark County's ordinance suspends business licenses; Mecklenburg's rule authorizes "shutting down a facility's operations." Nothing on this page rests on a measure an employer adopted without an order requiring it; every modification described is traced to the instrument that compelled it, and Tri-State held that "the required protocols and procedures to comply with the Proclamation" are the suspension the order caused. An instrument that begins "must" and ends with a penalty is not a suggestion, and an employer that obeyed it did not volunteer.

Q&A-14 reaches, by its own terms, only a suspension "not due to a governmental order," and the United States and the District Court have defined the excluded employer as one "not being ordered to do so." No carrier, warehouse or wholesaler in Texas, California, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Florida or North Carolina answered that description in any quarter. The reopening orders permitted operation only on conditions with the force of law, "shall operate at no more than," "must be operated subject to," "is required to abide by," "shall continue to comply," "shall develop a plan," each carrying the penalty its emergency or health act attached. The standing statutes commanded the same conduct independently of any order: Texas Health and Safety Code § 81.002 ("Each person shall act responsibly to prevent and control communicable disease"), North Carolina's "All persons shall comply with control measures," Indiana's "shall not institute, permit, or maintain any conditions that may transmit, generate, or promote disease," the safe-workplace statutes and the general duty clause, 29 U.S.C. § 654(a)(1), enforced by citation from September 2020 and against a general warehousing employer in April 2021. The Legislatures of Texas and Florida then fixed the standard of care as compliance with governmental standards, guidance and protocols. The safe-workplace statute had no COVID-19 content until the health authorities said what a safe workplace required; the distanced dock, the screened shift, the masked floor and the emptied office were taken because those directives defined the duty, and would not have been taken without them. "Due to" is but-for causation, and the causation here runs from the command to the measure without an intervening choice. The Notice's own words confirm it: a modification "required by a governmental order as a condition of reopening a physical space for business or service to the public" is a partial suspension due to the order. A statute that commands conduct is an order from an appropriate governmental authority; the Service's premise that no command reached the employer fails wherever one did, and in this industry one did in every State and every quarter.

Sentence 7: 7. Not more than nominal: the ten percent figure applied as a floor

"The portion of the business affected was not more than nominal (the 10 percent figure applied as a floor)."

The ten percent figure is, in the United States' words, "not determinative," "a quintessential safe harbor," "a safe harbor rather than a hard floor":

Tri-State held it "a method for the test to be met not as a requirement to meet the test." A letter that applies it as a floor applies as law what the United States told two courts is not law. The Service's FAQ page and AM 2023-007, which administer the figure as the definition of "more than nominal," cannot be squared with the United States' representations, and this analysis holds the United States to the representations. The statute's word is "portion," and Tri-State refused to read "more than nominal" as "significant." The portions this page identifies (every cross-border lane, every port and rail move, every wholesale line Pennsylvania closed, every warehouse floor rebuilt to half occupancy, every driver not hired for want of a test, every receiver's dock closed or conditioned) are more than nominal under any measure, including the United States' own safe harbor, which the showing for this industry exceeds many times over.

Read the full answer to sentence 7 and the record behind it →

Sentence 8: 8. The required modifications had only a nominal effect

"The required modifications (masks, gloves, spacing, screening) had only a nominal effect on operations (Q&A-18)."

The Notice's own list of compelled modifications includes "requiring employees and customers to wear face coverings," and the United States told the District Court that "employees having to wear face masks may impact business operations" and that "orders that were otherwise directed at business operations (operational hours, space, etc.) would also be considered." The masks-and-aisles sentence and the second ten percent rule first appeared on March 1, 2021, after every one of the three claimable quarters of 2020 had closed under FAQs that contained neither; the June 19, 2020 FAQ kept its unqualified "Yes" for a closed purpose and added "more than a nominal effect" only where "all of an employer's business operations may continue." The modifications described here are not masks alone; they are workplace infection-prevention and exposure-control regimes: fifty percent occupancy, six-foot spacing "at all times," staggered shifts and breaks, visitor bans, daily screening, ten- to fourteen-day exclusions of exposed workers with pay, written plans with penalties, sole-occupant cabs, documented border crossings, attestation at every federal gate and programmed inspection. Tri-State held that "[s]ick patients and employees alone did not require additional protocols"; the orders did.

Sentence 9: 9. A declaration of emergency is not an order

"A declaration of emergency is not an order (Q&A-10)."

Agreed, and this analysis relies on no bare declaration as a limitation. The emergencies of twenty-five States in the third quarter of 2021 are relied on as the predicates under which the health officers, occupational-safety agencies and local governments issued the orders that are relied on, and the Notice itself excludes a declaration only where it "does not limit commerce, travel, or group meetings in any manner" or does so "in a manner that does not relate to the suspension of an employer's operation." FMCSA's declaration is relied on as posture only. Every instrument in the six-quarter findings for each quarter is a command with a sanction.

Sentence 10: 10. The supplier was not itself closed by order

"The supplier was not itself closed by order; supply-chain effects are too attenuated (AM 2023-005)."

AM 2023-005 says of itself that it "may not be used or cited as precedent"; Tri-State refused to weigh such a memorandum; and the United States told the Ninth Circuit that Q&A-12 "never even mentions a 'physical[ ] clos[ure]' order against the supplier." For this industry the suppliers were closed by order: Michigan's, Ohio's, Indiana's and Pennsylvania's plants in the spring of 2020; every non-essential shipper and receiver in the closure States; the motor-vehicle offices; the plazas and lodging; the ports and borders under federal orders that remain exhibits in the Library. The chain is one link long, and the link is an order. Tri-State fixed causation at but-for, and the United States agreed that "due to" means "because of."

Sentence 11: 11. The orders had lifted before the quarter began

"The orders had lifted before the quarter began; any effect was a lingering effect."

For the third quarter of 2021 the premise is false: the third-quarter inventory above lists the orders in force on July 1 and on September 30, 2021, and the finding rests on them. For every quarter, the clause asks whether the operation "is fully or partially suspended during the calendar quarter due to orders," not whether an order was in effect during the quarter; a suspension is "[t]he act of temporarily delaying, interrupting, or terminating something" on the United States' agreed definition; and the Notice's Q&A-22 makes an employer suspended for part of a quarter eligible for the whole of it. The orders' own reopening steps fix how long the compelled dismantling took to reverse, and the interconnected-economy section above states the arithmetic from the orders' dates. This analysis uses the term "continuing suspension" for that proposition, because that is what the statute's words describe.

Sentence 12: 12. No decline in gross receipts

"The employer did not experience the required decline in gross receipts."

The gross-receipts prong is an alternative, not a requirement. The clause reads "or," and Tri-State held the prongs independent "by Defendant's admission," finding "even Defendant's own argument is contradictory" when the United States argued that the gross-receipts prong narrowed the suspension prong. An employer whose receipts rose because its customers' orders re-routed to it, or because freight rates rose under the very congestion the orders produced, was partially suspended if its operation was delayed, interrupted or terminated in part because of orders; the statute does not ask what the suspension cost.

Sentence 13: 13. Guidance, recommendations or best practices

"The instruments relied on are guidance, recommendations or best practices, not orders."

Every instrument in the six-quarter findings is an order, proclamation, rule, statute, directive or ordinance with a sanction, and each is quoted from its own text. A federal order enforceable under 42 U.S.C. § 271 and 18 U.S.C. § 3559; that order as applied at every sea port through the Captains of the Port's order authority, which the Coast Guard's bulletins record; a Federal Railroad Administration emergency order with civil penalties; a Department of Homeland Security notice under 19 U.S.C. § 1318(b) prohibiting non-essential travel; a Governor's executive order with criminal penalties; an occupational-safety standard enforceable by citation; a statute with penalties to $20,000; a county ordinance suspending business licenses; a Board of Health rule enforceable by closure. The guidance documents of the period (OSHA's warehouse and trucking alerts, the CDC's considerations, FMCSA's frequently asked questions, the CISA list standing alone) are described as guidance and ground no finding; the CISA list acquired force through the State orders that adopted it, and each of those orders is cited; and the Coast Guard's Marine Safety Information Bulletins, the motor-vehicle agencies' closure notices and the Department of Transportation's enforcement statements are described as the agencies' records of the orders, closures and limitations they implemented, cited for that fact and not as orders. The Notice's own exclusion reaches "[s]tatements from a governmental official, including comments made during press conferences," and nothing relied on here is such a statement. A rule filed in a State's administrative code with a five-hundred-dollar daily penalty is not a press conference.

Sentence 14: 14. "Order" must be given its ordinary meaning

"'Order' must be given its ordinary meaning."

Agreed. An "order" is "a specific rule, regulation, or authoritative direction" and "an authoritative indication to be obeyed; a command or direction"; the Service's own Chief Counsel defines it as "a command or mandate delivered by a government official"; and the United States agreed in Tri-State that the clause is read by "plain meaning." Every instrument in the six-quarter findings is a command from a competent authority to do or refrain from doing something on pain of sanction. That is the ordinary meaning, and it is satisfied.

11. How to use this report

Keep this report with your payroll records and the other records that support your claim. The Notice itself describes what those records are. Q&A-70 says an employer "will adequately substantiate eligibility for the employee retention credit if the employer creates and maintains records that include," among other things, "any governmental order to suspend the employer's business operations" and "any records the employer relied upon to determine whether more than a nominal portion of its operations were suspended due to a governmental order or whether a governmental order had more than a nominal effect on its business operations" (Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, Q&A-70, at 944-45). Q&A-71 says to keep those records "for at least 4 years after the date the tax becomes due or is paid, whichever comes later" (Q&A-71, at 945). This report is the first of those two items for your selection, and it is meant to sit beside the second.

If you have received a letter from the Service saying that no government orders were in effect during the quarter you claimed, this report answers that sentence with the public record, order by order. Read the quarter you claimed. For each instrument, the report gives you the issuer, the number, the dates, the words that commanded the change, the penalty behind them and the exhibit. Those are facts about the public record, and anyone can check them against the register, the code or the docket the report cites. The Service is free to argue about how much a given order affected your business. Whether the orders existed is not a matter of opinion.

Three points of public law matter to anyone holding such a letter. First, a notice that turns down a refund claim starts a clock. Under section 6532(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, a refund suit cannot be brought "after the expiration of 2 years from the date of mailing by certified mail or registered mail by the Secretary to the taxpayer of a notice of the disallowance of the part of the claim to which the suit or proceeding relates." Second, asking the IRS Independent Office of Appeals to review the letter does not stop that clock; the Service's own page on the letter says so ("Requesting an appeal doesn't extend this time"), and section 6532(a)(4) provides that the Service's later consideration of the claim does not extend the period. Third, the period can be extended only by a written agreement between you and the Service under section 6532(a)(2), made on Form 907, Agreement to Extend the Time to Bring Suit, and effective only if the Service signs it before the two years run out.
